The Newman family has been a Westport institution for decades, so was only fitting that she hosted the launch of the book at the Westport Library on Tuesday, Oct. 10.
During the event, Newman was joined by her longtime friend and filmmaker Doug Tirola, sharing insights into her parents, both local and Hollywood legends.
The event kicks off at 7 p.m. and is free to attend. Copies of Head Over Heels will be on sale, with Newman signing copies after the talk, the Westport Library said.
The book features 120-plus photos of the couple together, including many that have never been published, along with handwritten notes, letters, and family treasures.
Primarily an artist and jazz vocalist, Woodward is also a writer and a third-generation teacher whose career has included singing jingles, teaching in a women’s correctional facility, and leading art and vocal workshops, the library said.
Tirola, also a Westport resident, is a filmmaker and writer and the owner and president of 4th Row Films, a movie and television production company.
